Dexter turns and searches for a target for his next arrow. If it seems too risky for fire into the melee, he will draw his sword and charge into combat, preferably attacking from a flank or the rear of the enemy.
Gubuk has lured away one of the creatures from the melee, making it a more ready target for your bow. Your first arrow strikes it dead in the back and it drops to the ground.
You block the advance of the wounded creature in order to protect Puggy's retreat with your body, but are unable to land a blow on it, as it dodges your attack. Still oozing blood, it's no better in combat and thrusts its short blade ineffectually at you to no avail.
[Ivildir's face looks like it was made of stone, he doesn't scream, he doesn't retreat,he doesn't even blink,the Dwarf is completely calmed and focused on the battle,it looks like if he was possesed...]
Ivildir stays where he is,standing firmly,and will try to slay the wounded humanoid he has in front of him, and anyone else who might try to go in the direction Puggy left.

Grimey will go and render what assistance he can to Puggy.
"Does anyone like have any bandages?" he asks the other magic users. "I knew like I forgot something, but, like truth to tell, I like faint at the sight of blood, especially if it's my own like."

Your swing strikes the creature in its side, which causes it to fall over to the ground. Within a few seconds, it's dead in a pool of its own foul blood.

All of the creatures now lay dead in the caverns. (Everyone gains 15 XP from the combat -- woo-hoo!), allowing you the opportunity to continue to tend to your wounded and explore the caverns further.

We'd better check behind that door to the North West. I want to be sure that wounded Kobold is dead, and not crawling away to raise the alarm.
Anyone want to accompany me to take a quick look?
After that, I still have a spider bite on my shoulder to treat. I'll soak a wad of cloth in water from the pool, and clean the wound as well as I can. Then I'll bind the wound with a strip torn from my cloak.
[Puggy lazily chops his axe into the neck of the prostrate leader and begins looting the body]
The leader wore a (small) chain shirt, leather breaches, and carried a hand axe. He also had a small bag on his belt, which contains a collection of copper coins, along with a funny looking metal "bar" on whose underside there are three raised grooves.
[Puggy examines the bar carefully. Is it open? Does it look like there'll be a cover charge? Full service or beer & wine only? Puggy waves over Ivildir, Thursty, HoJo - ]

"I think this bar's open!"
"What about the kitchen?"
Is the leader-- or any of the others-- carrying anything to eat? And for those who can see where this is going, it's not cannibalism because goblins and koblods are as far away as elves and ducks. Even more.

Gubuk will examine the passage he stands in (where the creatures initially came from). Is there a door? A corner? Whatever the case, I would like to make sure that there's not another group of them approaching or waiting to jumps us.
Assuming this examination doesn't reveal immediate threat, I'll come back and loot the dead archers, set their arrows aside for any of our bowmen.
